About the Item

Botanical subjects are my primary inspiration. I find immense joy in capturing the colors and textures of nature through still-life settings. Exhibiting them at the George Billis Gallery. Over the past nine years, I have explored the fascinating medium of egg tempera, which allows for exceptional precision and luminosity in my paintings. While I spent many years working with watercolor and gouache, transitioning to egg tempera has been both challenging and incredibly rewarding. The challenges arise from the need for multiple intricate layers of paint, which must be applied to achieve the desired luminosity and form. The beautiful effects that can be achieved with this medium are what I strive for in each piece, making the time and effort worthwhile. I draw inspiration from the classical works of Renaissance painters, as well as contemporary egg tempera artists like Eliot Hodgkin, Robert Vickery, and Andrew Wyeth. Each new painting offers an opportunity to explore details, nuances, and contrasts of light within the composition and to recreate the ephemeral beauty of nature.
